Form and env. variable

[lgnihlman]

Hi !
I have a form that users use to e-mail me a problem report.
I would like to have the environment variable COMPUTERNAME included in the e-mail.
The variable should not be visible to users, only to me.

How can I do this ?

Any tips are appreciated,thanks.

Hi,

Try a hidden field.

<input type=&quot;hidden&quot; name=&quot;COMPUTER NAME&quot; value=&quot;&quot;>

How do you determine the computer's name?

In your mail form script you should be able to define this no problem.

One form I have in PHP does the following:

##send mail
if ($subject==&quot;&quot $subject=&quot;Form&quot;;
mail(&quot;$recipient&quot;,&quot;$subject Submission&quot;,
&quot;$subject Submission:

$results
Sender's IP: SERVER_NAME,$REMOTE_USER,$REMOTE_ADDR&quot;


I can't remember what is the environmental variable for the computer name, I don't have a clue about this server side stuff.

I should clarify my question.
I want the Windows environment variable COMPUTERNAME to be automaticly included in the e-mail.

In a command prompt you can type SET and then all
the environment variables can be seen.

It's the variable COMPUTERNAME from this list that I want
to be sent to me.

What language are you using? ASP?
It should be very easy to set this in your mail script to read this env variable and sent it with the form output.


Some of these might give you clues until an expert answers the question
